Having competed in qualifying heats earlier in the day, the evening will see finalists flaunting their best moves, from the social dance moves of Hip Hop, to the rhythmic body movements of Afro fusion/Afro house and freestyle movements of Allstyles, to claim the top spot. Categories will be Breakin’, Allstyles, Hip-Hop, Poppin’, Afro fusion/Afro house, and there will also be a KRUMP showcase.
